NASCAR fans get first look at Daytona’s ‘awesome’ changes

The Daytona International Speedway is a 2.5 mile tri-oval track on 480 acres of land in Daytona Beach, Florida. It is most famously known as the home of “The Great American Race”—the Daytona 500. This motorsports complex has earned the title of the “World Center of Racing” due to its diverse schedule of racing events. With a seating capacity of 168,000, the track has plenty of room for spectators for its eight weekends with major events, in addition to its smaller gatherings for car shows, photo shoots, production vehicle testing, and police motorcycle training.
